• December 13: Annual Holiday Party
  Join with us in sharing some holiday cheer. Rocky Mountain Flycasters will host a Holiday Party on Friday, December 13th from 6:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. This festive occasion starts off with social time and a cash bar, followed by a wide variety of hors d’œuvres. We will also have a Fly Tree raffle so bring a few flies to share and hang on the trees. We will also be having our infamous White Elephant Gift Exchange. (One hopes that gorgeous fish lamp will be part of the exchange.) We will be raffling off one of our excellent rods also.
  This is the one holiday party you don’t want to miss—a highlight of the season with fun, food, and friends. Be sure to be there and bring your spouse or significant other.
  Ticket information will be available soon Order your tickets now and avoid the rush at the door.
  Tickets are $15 per person by ordering on the web ($20 per person at the door) for this party that will be at C.B. & Potts-Restaurant on W. Elizabeth. See this MapQuest page for directions.

Note of the Day:

In the last pool of Ettrick, the water flowed by a steep bank, and, if you cast almost on to the further side, you were perfectly safe to get fish, even when the river was very low. The flies used, three on a cast, were small and dusky, hare’s ear and woodcock wing, black palmers, or, as Stoddart sings,
Wee dour looking hulks are the thing,
Mouse body and laverock wing.
